Education: | Kaloji Narayana Rao University of Health Sciences |
Academic degree: | Bachelor of Ayurvedic Medicine and Surgery |
Area of specialization: | I am a BAMS graduate, trained in both classical Ayurvedic principles and the practical side of modern clinical practice. My focus is not just on giving medicine but understanding where the imbalance really start—whether it’s diet, lifestyle, or deeper dosha disturbance. I work with a range of patients… sometimes it’s chronic pain cases like arthritis or sciatica, other times it’s digestive troubles, skin issues, or even metabolic problems like type 2 diabetes. I like using Panchakarma, herbal formulations, and simple yet effective lifestyle tweaks, because they often make more difference than people expect. During my study and training I learned how important it is to listen, not just to symptoms but to the whole story a patient carries. Every case is different, and sometimes the textbook answer just doesn’t fit, which is why personalizing treatment feels essential to me. My aim is always to blend authentic Ayurveda with practical, everyday solutions that actually work for the person infront of me. |
Achievements: | I am honestly quite happy that I started my consultations, at first I wasn’t sure how people will respond but turns out many are finding real relief and comfort with the way I approach their health issues. Some come with long term problems, some with fresh concerns, and hearing them say they feel better or understood makes me feel the effort is worth. Each case is different, I try to give time, listen fully and use right ayurvedic methods that suit their body not just the disease. |
I am done with a year-long internship at a govt ayurvedic hospital, and honestly, that one year felt like a crash course in real life Ayurveda more than any classroom could teach. Working there meant I got to see and treat a mix of acute and chronic cases every single day… joint pain, gastritis, allergies, skin infections, the kind of stuff you don’t just read in textbooks but actually touch and understand. I learned how Panchakarma is not just about “detox” but about choosing the right therapy for the right patient at the right time, and sometimes that means changing the plan halfway when the body reacts in unexpected way. I handled patients under supervision of senior Vaidyas, doing Abhyanga, Swedana, and other classical treatments, and also prepared herbal formulations in the hospital pharmacy — those smells of freshly ground herbs still stays with me. We also had plenty of OPD exposure, which taught me the small things like how a patient sits, talks, even avoids eye contact can tell you more than their words. Some days were chaotic, like running from ward to OPD with barely time to sip water, but that chaos kind of made me sharper. I learned to connect what the pulse says with what the patient’s daily life is doing to them. That internship wasn’t just about ticking hours, it was about getting my hands deep into the practical side of Ayurvedic care, working with real people, and knowing that healing is never one-size-fit-all — it’s always personal.
